Feeling better day by day

Today was a good day. I had a little more energy until late this evening. Less shoulder pain...finally. Less soreness overall. I ate soupy mashed potatoes today which tasted amazing, but I was full very quickly. What a concept! I walked 1 mile with my DD2 and friend this evening and could hardly make the last lap. There was a high school summer workout program going on at that time, and I tell you...teenagers don't know how wonderful it is to have those athletic bodies. I wish they could fast forward a few years to motivate them to keep it up. I wish I would have.

 

I take my mom tomorrow for a physical to look for cancerous lesions on her body to make sure she doesn't have a melanoma. Then Thursday, I have a post op visit and she's having a body scan. I'm praying that maybe all the bad news we heard last week might have some miracle cure. I'm trying to keep my mantra going - "God's grace is sufficient." We can make it through many bad days with the grace of God - I think I am finally realizing that.

 

Hope all my June 29th band buddies are recovering nicely. Have a good night all.

Hey Band Buddy, It sounds like you have a busy day. God is good and he/she would not give us something we cannot handle. Lots of wonderful support here on this site. I am thinking of you. I am still on liquids, I see my Dr. this Friday. Oh I want something to chew so bad. But I am just not going to think any more about it. I have also been walking at a good clip for 30 min on a tread mill at our fitness place it has helped my head. Look forward to hearing from you. Have a good day. imaluckydog Kathy
